Good Morning Bookworms!

I hope you’ve got an appetite for something spooky, because today’s post is all about Fridge Goop by Alana K. Drex.

I’ve been following Alana on her Instagram and following her writing journey for a few years now, and I was always too behind on my TBR to give her books a read … until now!

I’m a foodie, so the blurb of this book really caught my eye. Let’s see how it went!

Blurb

Identical twins, Edna and Ruth Olstadt, are a team when it comes to turning out meals for monthly church luncheons. Problem is, it’s around that time again. June 5, 1987, to be exact—only a few days away from First Presbyterian’s annual picnic potluck. And no amount of list-making will save Edna from the inconvenience of their trusty antique refrigerator’s death. But then, all seems like it will be just fine when a lucky discovery soon follows the catastrophe. Maybe more than fine. Because soon Edna will be preparing meals like she never has before!

The Review

This read was a lot of fun!

Spinsters Edna and Ruth are excited about a church potluck coming up, but their beloved fridge has died just days away! Desperate for a solution, they are overjoyed when a fridge appears overnight in front of their neighbors’ house across the street. But there’s something strange about this fridge, something that will soon affect those around them forever.

I really liked the overall vibe of this book. It’s got this suburban feel to it, but underneath it is something terrifying with this strange fridge that appears. The book’s chapters hop between Edna, Ruth, and others nearby that gave an overall immersive experience.

Edna and Ruth are polar opposites, and I enjoyed the duality between them. Edna is a mean, stubborn lady while Ruth is more forgiving and positive. Robby, their young teenage neighbor, was also interesting. I was surprised by some of the decisions these characters made, which really kept me on my feet.

The plot was really exciting. I wanted to know everything about this bizarre fridge, and once I got into things I couldn’t put this book down.

If you have an insatiable appetite for horror, I definitely recommend this one!

That’s A Wrap!
